Special ADDED post!

I found out some disturbing news… at least I think I did. As of right now it’s a dirty rumor!

Apparently Green Tea contains nutrients that are detrimental to your thyroid, preventing it from producing valuable thingies your body needs. If you happen to have a thyroid disorder, like I do, its even worse because it prevents the Synthetic thyroid from helping.

I want to let out a sad tuba sound.


I haven't found anything for or against this argument, but now I am afraid to drink my morning tea… the very tea I was drinking to get healthy. Hmmm… Why are there SO many conflicting opinions about health?!?! No wonder most of the population is struggling with body issues!

ARGH!


More to come… I am doing my homework!

Love!

BALL!

Ball Course: 30minutes
Running: 15minutes
Calories: 574

I made it to the gym today... I slept for 16 hours yesterday and I am sure I am catching some sort of cold, but I made it to the gym. I am clearly looking for bonus points... I wish I didn't CRAVE the bonus points, love me!!

I attend Angela's (AKA the beasts) 'ball' class... it is as it sounds... a class of balls, big PINK balls.

It's a better work out than I expected and I only wish I could remember the detailed exercise to do it at home... its a lot of bouncing around and stuff.

I felt my muscles quivering and shake. It felt good, but I have a headache now... silly over exertion!

I also started a NEW pill regime today... ya-ya pills are bad, but hear me out first. I take CLA twice a day and always have, it helps with muscle development and fat loss. I also take a multi-vitamin, but am starting a new one today from GNC... its called Women's Ultra Mega Active, great name eh?! Any who... nothing amazing to report thus far, but my pee is a BRIGHT yellow.

I also got a NEW tea... I typically drink Green Tea every morning, but I got a gift card for Chapters and they had a HUGE tea selection so I thought I would try something new AND its called GET LOST as in lose weight... obviously I had to try it.

**Both links take you to reviews, which are more helpful than the purchasing site ;)

It smells YUMMY and tastes awful... I haven't noticed a change, but I am only one day two so we'll see.

Ok... I have to get back to work.

It feels good to be back!

Pounds to lose: 18

Hello 2011!

Spinning: 45minutes
Calories: 720

Ok, as promised I am returning FULL force in the NEW YEAR... much like every resolutionist. Although I did manage to KEEP my resolution for the better part of the year so GO ME!

I did a WEIGH IN on Monday January 3rd... I am 219 pounds. Ew. I missed my mark of 200 by the end of the year. I am ok. I still lost 25 pounds and probably more, given my weigh in was after a night of drinking and eating for the New Year.

So I am making the SAME resolution... to lose weight and get healthy. This year I am hoping to lose 19 pounds by April 8th and another 15 by the end of the year. I think this is fair... Day One I am doing great... I am down .4 pounds and eating a healthy lunch.

I went to spinning as usual... I am not changing my work-out regime, just tightening up my diet.

Wish me luck.

I have 17 months and 27 days to do this... because I will be a size 9 for my wedding day January 1st 2012.

Happy New Year!

Check back for progress!

Love!
